"Dao's latest fuses beats of Cyrano de Bergerac with elements from her Rise of the Empress duology to create an East Asian-influenced tale of love, greed, politics, addiction, and found family." --Publishers Weekly
"Powered by quiet, satisfying prose and a sense of magic and wonder, this will appeal to lovers of fairy-tale retellings and new fantasy worlds." --SLJ
"It hits all the notes for a romantic fantasy that is enjoyable and appropriate for both younger and older readers." --VOYA
"The perfect choice for readers who love a fairy tale fantasy but are looking to move past conventional Western fare." --BCCB
